My (poor) attempt at recreating a map of the Korean conquest of Siberia from the early 2000s as an assignment for my Korean class several years ago

My (poor) attempt at recreating a map of the Korean conquest of Siberia from the early 2000s as an assignment for my Korean class several years ago

Title: Korean conquest of Siberia

Legend: Korean Emperors with the years of their reigns, 1917 marking the Treaty of Brest-Livotsk

Scale: The symbol next to 3000 is just the Korean symbol for league

Outer Regions: Koreans translations of Novgorod, Ukraine, Turkiy, Chinaa, and Japan. Urals are "eastern mountains", and the Gobi is "Great Desert".

Inner Regions: Siberia and Mongolia

Seas: Arctic ocean is "northernmost sea", Alaskan sea is "Hyech'o Sea" named after the explorer, Ainu sea is "north sea", Sea of Korea is the same, and Yellow sea is "west sea"

Cities:

Capitals: Peking (postal name of Beijing), Seoul (which is just capital in Korean), Kyoto (changed from Tokyo after its destruction in WW2 and the allied occupation thereafter).

Notable cities: Jinju (on the Chinese border, Jinzhou before its annexation in the 2nd Sino-Korean War), Ainu (Sapporo before its annexation in WW2)

Fun facts (wrote this in a seperate document): While the Korean Federation is the largest country in the world by area, a vast majority of its population (82%, 177 out of 215 million) resides in the Korean peninsula and eastern Manjuria. Korea is also very ethnically diverse, home to a mix of Koreans, Manjus, Chinese, Mongolians, Yaquds, Japanese, Ainu, Russians, Kazaks, Magyars, Tungusians, and Luoravetlans.

Sorry, my Korean was awful (still is) so I probably messed up a few of the transcriptions. I don't have the marked version anymore, so I won't know either.

The Odyssey Map – The Journey of Odysseus My newest hand-drawn map follows the legendary voyage of Odysseus from Homer’s Odyssey, tracing his long and dangerous journey home after the fall of Troy.

From the land of the Lotus-Eaters to the island of the Cyclops, from Circe’s enchantments to the deadly passage between Scylla and Charybdis,

the map explores the mythical locations, creatures, and encounters that shaped one of the greatest adventures in Greek mythology.

The artwork combines fantasy cartography, historical inspiration, and illustrated storytelling in a detailed pictorial map style.

Like many of my projects, the map began as traditional hand-drawn artwork before being refined digitally while preserving its handmade character.

Map of Tripoli's rail network in my TL, Of Days Gone By.

"Visited Tripoli recently on a business trip and happened to catch the train to Qamarayn.
To be honest, it's not terrible and it beats catching the bus or taxi. 
The carriages are fairly old-fashioned, but the seats were comfortable enough. I'll say this, despite
how clogged with traffic Tripoli is, the rail system isn't terrible.
It's just underfunded. And that's a real shame."

Mengjiang Ambitions during WW2 (Greater Mongolia)

During the Second Sino-Japanese War, the puppet regime of Mengjiang under Demchugdongrob (who called himself descendant of Genghis Khan) has the ambitions of create a Greater Mongolia.

  • Outer Mongolia: Obviously the main goal was to unify the two Mongolias under his rule. He viewed the Soviet-backed Mongolian State as a territory that needed to be "liberated" and reunited with its Inner Mongolian brethren. Japanese military officials encouraged these claims, promising that the Imperial Army would eventually recover the region and install him as the "emperor of all Mongolia".
  • Manchukuo: Demchugdongrob also claimed the four provinces of Hsingan in Manchukuo on the basis of Mongolians living there. The Japenese rejected this claims as for mantaining the integrity of its puppet.
  • China: There were extreme claims on conquering Xinjiang, Gansu and Qinghai. Demchugdongrob called these regions "Upper Mongolia" and said that there were living up to one million mongolians.
  • Russia: The main goal against Russian land was to take Buryatia and the territories around Lake Baikal, which should be a Mongolian lake. Tuva was also envisioned as parto of Mongolians Natural Borders.

Prathet Thai in Dr.STONE (5799 AD) (if you're Dr.STONE fans and don't want to get spoiled, DO NOT read the lores

On June 3rd, 2019, every man, woman and child has turned into petrified statues across the world.

Regardless, humanity is back from the stone curse thanks to Senku and his team to revive people across the world, so humanity can restart its civilization back, Thailand is no exception.

In 5799 AD, this maybe what Thailand may look like.

Fantasy Map V 1.0

Hello guy, this is my first attempt at a fantasy map. I drew it out then edited using my phone so there isn’t loads of detail but I’m happy how it came out given the limited resources.

I’ve fleshed out some of it in my head especially the north west quarter. However I’ve not thought up a name for the world, the western ocean or most of the areas in the other three quarters of the map.

I’d love some suggestions for you got the time and I’ll answer any questions if you got them
(though it’s unlikely I’ll have an answer given how recent this idea is).
